Operating from London, the organisation is a central government public authority. The aim of this contracted work is to update the draft OMH inventory using recent data to improve accuracy. The tender, which was in the Award stage as of 17th October 2025, saw the completion of contract award to AXION SOLUTIONS LTD. Scheduled to start on 20th October 2025 and end by 27th February 2026, this open competition, under below-threshold procurement, falls within the services category, focusing on GIS, geology, and environmental consultancy services. This tender represents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in geographical information systems and environmental consultancy, particularly SMEs, as highlighted by the award to AXION SOLUTIONS LTD. With the work scope requiring expertise in analysing and converting aerial imagery data into actionable GIS data, companies in these sectors could find new collaborations and exposure by participating in such public contracts. The procurement's open nature reflects an accessible opportunity for well-suited enterprises to engage in government projects, applying their innovative solutions and technical capabilities. ## Notice The work relates to the draft inventory of OMH published in 2013 and not updated since. The scale of the change in the extent of OMH since 2013 was unknown so in 2024 a contract was let to compare the polygons within the draft inventory against the latest available aerial imagery. This confirmed that 25% of the polygons no longer contained OMH and should be removed from the inventory and in another 30% of the polygons OMH was still present but the boundary of the polygon required amendment to account for partial loss from development or vegetation succession. The work is to use the data from the 2024 contract and remove and amend the polygons from the draft inventory where OMH has been lost to create a more accurate GIS layer. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/066394-2025 | | Notice type | UK7 -
